MC Rear Foglight "color" question

I have noticed this on MC's driving around town.
Sometimes I see a "justacooper' with a white rear foglight. Sometimes it's red.

What the deal? I like the white one better, and I am not sure which color my car will have once I get it.

Early Coopers have the clear back up light in the bumper. '05 and '06 have the back up lights in the tail lights and a black plastic plug or red rear fog light in the bumper hole where the clear back up light used to be.

Why would you want a "white" rear foglight?

Besides being illegal it does not make sense.

Hehe, yeah... wouldn't people think you were coming to them?

I guess if they were non-functional, it'd be all right, but almost as bad as fake vents on your quarter panels... ick.

I just liked the way it looked and got confused by all the different ones I saw out there.
